Adam was a wonderful teacher and able to lead 4 slightly rambunctious middle aged ladies. We will definitely be going again.Posted on Shannen Brundell22/03/2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had an amazing day yesterday at candle making, a belated mothers day present for my mum! Adam was so warm and welcoming, and the space he has created is beautiful! Such a fun activity to do and the added bonus of a lovely candle to take home at the end of it! Would highly recommend - 5 stars!!Posted on Bek Corrance21/03/2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We went to Loyal Candles for a candle making experience. Adam was very professional, friendly and knowledgeable. The whole experience felt very high end, and the smells on offer are all very strong with something for everyone. We got to make a candle that I can smell without even lighting it, and a box of wax melts. The whole afternoon was very enjoyable and I highly recommend this experience. Thank you again AdamPosted on Taye19/03/2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had the pleasure of spending the morning at Loyal Candles with my mum for Mothers Day. And what a morning it was! Adam was an amazing host, incredibly knowledgeable, and the space was gorgeous! All of the scents were amazing, there is absolutely something for everyone. We had such a fun time creating some beautiful candles and wax melts, learning all of the process which Adam explained so well. I would 100% recommend booking, we loved every minute! We left with some gorgeous smelling candles and wax melts, personalised labels, along with some great tools and care tips to look after our new candles!

He was very knowledgable and I learnt some new things! Great activity to do with friends or family for a birthday/hen do. There was a great variety of scents to choose from so there is a scent for everyone. We came away with a candle and wax melts each.
